.......... From THREAD...

Like a feather, a pint-brush, a chisel, the thread shapes my work in all its forms:
..........- enlacement
..........- weft
..........- mixed
..........- painted
..........- affixed
..........- leant
..........- trodden
..........- forgotten
..........- thrown
..........- rejected
..........- recovered
..........- "revived"

…and it is this what inspires the most of my creation at the present, when it is made old, pounded, oxidized and also disrupted by time and use, it takes a new composition because of a new look…. and it is born again.

In my performance there are no unfortunate, poor or colorless threads, but they're threads which expect to be "animated", each one for and with their own particularities

 

 

 

 

 

 

......... ... to MOVEMENT

..........- from point to segment
..........- from segment to rotation
..........- from rotation to circle
..........- from circle to spiral
..........- from spiral to tornado
..........- from tornado to knot
..........- from knot to chain
..........- from chain to lace fabrics...

... round and round, we get into that stratosphere where turning becomes pure movement and losing sense of time and its productivity, just stays the air, colors and textures lightness which generates shapes at rhythm of movement.
